Two more head coaches to be announced?

As far as I can tell, we are down to two head coaching positions yet to be formally settled in the Central and Midwest regions. Those two so-called vacancies are currently being occupied by interim head coaches at North Park and Iowa Wesleyan, so there is a chance that they will not be under new leadership this off-season after all.

Trivia time. Among the 84 total Central and Midwest region teams, how many of those programs’ current coaches began their tenures in 2017 or later?

UPDATE: You are correct. The answer is 40 of the 84 current coaches in the Central/Midwest regions began their tenures in 2017 or later.
